I've seen the sunset alone
Watched the moon shine in its place
And I still remember when the rain
Hit the tears on my face
I kept praying for a certain kind of sunshine
To keep me smiling every day
I gave up, had it all figured out
Love was gone and I would live my life this way
Then there was you (you took my pain away)
Then there was you (bringing me sunshine every day)
Then there was you (I've found happiness)
So glad, so glad, so glad (so glad there's you)
Hey (you)
I was broken and lost for words
Picking up the pieces of my broken heart
(I was up and down and back and forth and 'round again)
I was up and down...back and forth
Trying to find love and happiness
Almost lost my mind trying to hold on
To what I thought was real
But when I let go I found the truth
I found the truth and the truth was you
Then there was you (you took my pain away)
Then there was you (bringing me sunshine every day)
Then there was you (I've found happiness)
I'm so glad there was you (so glad there's you)
(You)
Oh love can send you through
So, so many things
But I'm so glad, so glad
That the sun shines every day
Then there was you
Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh yeaaaah yeah yeah yeah
Oh sooooo glad
You
Yeah
Yeah
Yeaaaaaaahhhh yeah yeah
Alright alright alright alright
(Then there was you, you)
Alright, alright, then there was you
Yeah
Oh oh yeah yeah
Then there was you
Then there was you
